Large Bullfrog

Alternate Title: Parent whispers to their child that poking a dragon with stick is maybe not such a great idea.

This is the song I listen too when learning about 17th century colonial America (scare warning):

There are a few French and British controlled islands out in the Caribbean so maybe they worried the US will try to use war as an excuse for coming in and seizing them as staging zones. With Europe struggling with energy prices I also imagine they aren’t thrilled by the idea of a major oil producing country being bombed.

It’s been a cringe autocratic oligarchy since it’s independence, they have merely been forced to maintain good relations with Russia and China due to economic factors and proximity. It was never going to take much to have them jump to the West.

Yeah add another random country on the list of places to bomb during the middle of a government shutdown because why not.

I think it might be less about taking others oil and more about simply destroying other’s oil production as part of a strategy to starve China of oil trading partners. I think it’s quite likely the US instructed Israel to strike Iran’s oil and gas back when they attacked and are telling Ukraine the same with their drone strikes on Russian oil refineries. Destroying other’s energy also means higher prices meaning the US can suck more out of Europe.

From what little I know of Paraguay they have a history of strange right wing populist politics. Apart from that I imagine they are jumping on Argentina’s bandwagon.

IMF enslavement tier list.

To be fair, the US forces put into Bay of Pigs was tiny and far from full scale commitment. That said, attacking Cuba now in the age of drone warfare could open a massive can of worms for the US if Cuba becomes a Yemen and plucks at US commercial ships, oil rigs and coastal assets in the gulf.

Yes, let’s start wars with multiple countries while we are failing to even pay our own troops, truly a big brain move.

I mean yeah there is no way to distinguish a nuclear armed Tomahawk from conventional one so they have to treat any strike as a nuclear attack. On top of that the launching and guidance of Tomahawks is 100% done by people in Washington as opposed to the Ukrainian Army.

Terrorist = whoever opposes us at the current moment

Socialism doesn’t work, yet we have to constantly embargo/sanction/bomb socialist countries to keep them from rising while at the same time having to throw billions to other capitalists to keep them from sinking.

Here is to hoping she ends up being another Liz Truss instead and is gone within in a year like just like the past dozen British and Japanese PMs.

ChatGPT advised candidates and discord hosted elections, I’m going to need some time to recover.

Mass privatization turning out to be a horrendous idea, who would thought.

Shouldn’t they be happy then that China is taking it upon themselves to block their “intellectual property” from entering the country? I guess that falls outside their pre-installed scripted thinking regarding China.

Dear Charlie Kirk, you claimed to a be a patriotic American, yet made another American dislike you enough that they shot you. Curious…

No it’s alright, I do agree with you that it’s something worth carefully considering and weighing both options.
